Annalise waited for a moment to give Rafael time and opportunity to tell her to leave his hair for him to dry, but after what felt like a minute, he was still silent and sat still.
Annalise relaxed and moved her fingers to get the cloth to start soaking up the water from his hair. 'It is soft as it looks,' she thought.
She started to wonder why he had not yet cut his hair when he had been home for a few days now. Did he always wear his hair long or could he not be bothered to cut it right away?
"If I am too rough, please let me know. I do not want to end this day making your head sore. I have never dried anyone's hair other than mine to know if I am rough," Annalise said, pulling the cloth through the long strands of hair and then going back to rub it around his scalp.
